Your child has so much energy, and you want somewhere positive for them to use it
Big energy needs somewhere to go.
They have energy to burn
They need an activity that gets them moving rather than sitting or standing still.
If only there was a place that your child could move, play rough in a safe way, learn important life skills and have fun.
They are learning how to handle big feelings
They need opportunities to practise patience, self-control and resilience.
Trying something new can feel like a lot
A new class, new coach and new group can be overwhelming, especially if your child is shy or unsure of what to expect.
Jiu Jitsu gives them a place to put all of that energy to work.
They get to run, wrestle, tumble, grapple and learn while developing the ability to handle challenges, work with others and manage themselves.
who this is for
Open Week is for your child if...
- You'd love an activity where they can run, wrestle, play and move their body.
- They're naturally drawn to climbing, wrestling, chasing, rolling and physical games.
- You'd love to see them become more comfortable trying new things and tackling challenges.
- They're still learning to listen, take turns, follow rules and manage big emotions.
- You'd love for them to try martial arts but you weren't sure whether they'd enjoy it, fit in or know what to expect.

What really stands out is how encouraging and welcoming everyone is. The coaches take their time to help each student grow at their own pace, and they create an environment where kids feel safe, motivated, and proud of their progress. My son looks forward to every class and comes home excited about what he’s learned.
Travis
DJJ is a great place to learn Jiu Jitsu. My 10 year old and 8 year old have learned so much in a short period of time under Coaches Alvi and Miranda. Couldn’t be happier with the choice I made to join DJJ.
